Composite Laminator

Alteon; Bengaluru; On-site; INR 350,000 - 550,000; Full time

Job summary

Alteon Energy in Bengaluru is seeking a hands-on Composite Laminator to build aircraft structures with unmatched lightweight precision. You will own the quality of every layup, driving repeatability and speed as production scales.

The role focuses on composite layup and fabrication, process improvements, tooling and mold management, and in-process quality checks, ensuring high standards across every build.

Qualifications

• Take pride in a clean layup with no misaligned plies or dry spots.
• Obsess over eliminating variation; if two parts differ, find and fix it.
• Flag design or process decisions that make work harder.
• Hands-on experience in composite lamination and layup instructions.

Responsibilities

• Composite Layup & Fabrication: Hands-on wet layup of composite parts, ensuring consistent quality across every build.
• Process Improvement: Reduce cycle time and eliminate defects with every build.
• Tooling & Mold Management: Maintain molds, mandrels, and layup tooling. Flag issues before they affect part quality.
• In-Process Quality: Conduct self-inspections at each stage — fiber orientation, consolidation, void content.

Job description

About Alteon Energy

The Wright Brothers gave humanity flight, Alteon exists to give humanity perpetual flight. We are building the world’s highest endurance planes that can fly over the oceans for ~417 days at a time.

With these, we’re creating a world where you can have perpetual real time visibility across 100% of the ocean. A world where a million perpetually flying airplanes create a new layer of aerial infra that makes it possible to track the movement of every ship. Putting an end to all crime offshore from drug and human trafficking to terror attacks like 26/11, among other things.

As a company, we’re driven by pushing the boundaries of what’s possible – we don’t like to settle for good enough. We are here to build the best technology possible, the best airplane possible, to do the best engineering possible. Limited only by the laws of physics.

About the Role

As a Composite Laminator at Alteon, you’ll be building aircraft structures that have never existed before — parts that are lighter, stronger, and more precise than what conventional manufacturing can achieve.

This is a hands‑on role. You’ll own the quality of every part that comes off the layup table, and with every build, you’ll be expected to make the next one faster, cleaner, and more repeatable. We’re turning a craft process into one that scales — and you’ll be central to that.

You’ll Thrive Here If You:

• Take pride in a clean layup — misaligned plies and dry spots bother you even when no one’s watching.

• Obsess over eliminating variation. If two parts come out different, you want to know why and fix it.

• Are comfortable flagging design or process decisions that make your job unnecessarily harder.

• Have hands‑on experience in composite lamination.

• Can read and execute ply schedules and layup instructions.

Roles and Responsibilities

• Composite Layup & Fabrication: Hands‑on wet layup of composite parts, ensuring consistent quality across every build.

• Process Improvement: Reduce cycle time and eliminate defects with every build.

• Tooling & Mold Management: Maintain molds, mandrels, and layup tooling. Flag issues before they affect part quality.

• In-Process Quality: Conduct self‑inspections at each stage — fiber orientation, consolidation, void content.
